7 Days – Premium Luxury All-Inclusive Holiday

During this 5 – day safari you will visit three of the most well-known reserves on Tanzania’s “northern circuit” – the Tarangire, Lake Manyara National Park, the Ngorongoro Crater and the Serengeti National Park. With all the diverse landscapes and a crater full of animals, this safari has something for everyone and is ideal for those with limited time.  

Showcasing Tanzania’s famous northern reserves, this 5 – days safari delivers both wildlife and scenery in equal portions. Sit back and watch the Serengeti’s wildlife ebb and flow across the savannah; you also have thousands of flamingos that seem to colour the shallow waters pink. Many water birds gather at the lake and more than 400 bird species are found in the park. And, depending on the time of year you travel, you may have nature’s greatest spectacle to witness: the incomparable Wildebeest Migration.
